Notes
'Bronze' garlic (Allium sativum 'Bronze') is a vegetable for containers, food gardens, and low maintenance beds. It is typically grown as an annual. Few crops handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer rarely make it their first choice. It is fragrant and attracts butterflies.
Pairs well with Supersweet 100 tomato, Honeoye strawberry, and Salad burnet.
